Secure Your Apps and APIs
Providing secure access to data and services for various types of users across many different channels presents a real challenge. Using the Curity Identity Server, organizations can secure their digital services in configuration and not in code. Our API security solution helps to avoid lengthy development projects and costly maintenance.

In this demo, we give you a comprehensive overview of the Curity Identity Server. What it is and what problems it helps you solve.
Watch DemoCurity Architecture
A Modern Infrastructure
The Curity Identity Server was built with close attention to the architecture to ensure it addresses the identity structure of today, as well as prepared for the challenges of tomorrow. It is built on the design principle of separation of concerns, with each sub system serving only its specific purpose. And doing it really well. The effect of this is enhanced security, increased flexibility and true scalability, technical and operational.
Apps and clients
Centralized user authentication for all your websites and apps
Server applications
Unified authentication enables your server applications to access shared APIs.
APIs and microservices
Dynamic OAuth token generation that secure API access.
Customer Services Integrations
A standardized way to manage your users with one API.
Custom Authentication without Code
The Authentication Service is an advanced authentication multiplexor that can be configured to meet any app or website’s needs. With 25+ ready-made methods and a workflow engine of actions running on login and SSO, the Curity Identity server allows you to authenticate users for API access without custom code.
Token-based Architecture
The Token Service is the cornerstone for securing APIs. It is responsible for issuing tokens (tickets) with information about the caller for access control decisions. To really leverage on OAuth and OpenID Connect for distributed authorization, a flexible Token Service is a necessity.
API Driven User Management
The User Management Service offers a standardized way to manage users and simplifies access to legacy data sources. You can integrate with any user repository or database, allowing developers to work with JSON over REST, instead of SQL queries and LDAP operations.
Advanced Configuration Management
Curity Identity Server comes with a carrier-grade configuration service, where transaction-based changes, rollbacks, backups can be made of your entire cluster with a single command. The cohesive configuration service provides an easy-to-use Web UI, scriptable Juniper-style CLI, standards-based RESTCONF API and XML config files, built for automation and massive scale.
Deploy on Any Platform
The Curity Identity Server can be deployed in any environment and fits easily into your CI/CD pipelines with its multi-faceted management capabilities. With ready-made Docker images and Kubernetes helm charts, a Curity cluster that auto-scales linearly without inter-node dependencies can be setup in hours.
Protect your business apps and APIs
Solve Multi-tenancy Identity Challenges without Code
Many SaaS providers have a need for a multi-tenant identity service for their own customers and their users. The Curity Identity Server’s architecture, empowers you to quickly setup a multi-tenant cloud-based identity service to solve your SaaS application’s requirements.
Need to go beyond multi-tenancy? The Curity Identity Server also supports tenant within tenant deployments. Let your tenants create their own tenants.
Implemented multitenancy via configuration without coding
A tenant’s identity services can be shared or isolated across run-time nodes
Databases used for tokens and users can be independent of other tenants' data
Databases and Repositories
Curity's User Management Service provides support for any database. User credentials can be in Active Directory and other user data in a NoSQL-datastore. The User Management Service has been implemented and verified for many data sources, read on to learn more.
Use the Curity Identity Server for Free
The Community Edition is a free version of the Curity Identity Server enabling any organization or individual to secure their APIs and provide a great login experience to users.
Standards and Compliance
The Curity Identity Server supports a wide range of identity and security-related standards and has been certified to conform to OpenID Connect and implement a vast number of IETF RFCs. We believe industry standards are of vital importance. They help ensure a high level of security by being designed and vetted by security experts, avoids vendor lock-in, gives a less steep learning curve for new team members and simplifies regulatory compliance.
